Adam Lyth scores 109 for Yorkshire, his third Championship hundred of the season, as they reach 312-7 on day one against Northamptonshire.
Adam Lyth celebrated his 200th Championship match for Yorkshire by scoring his third century of the season on day one of the game against Northamptonshire.
Lyth survived big lbw shouts from Jack White on 24 and Ben Sanderson on 56 but dominated an opening stand of 86 with Finlay Bean who was undone by one from Justin Broad which tailed back in and knocked back leg stump. After tea, Shan Masood clipped Broad off his legs for four to reach 50 and stroked Siddarth Kaul through the covers before he loosely played at the Indian paceman's next delivery and was sensationally caught by a diving Emilio Gay at slip, who redeemed himself after an earlier drop.
James Wharton took the attack to Rob Keogh, smashing him over long-on for six, but he was next to go when the ball ricocheted off his leg onto the stumps as he attempted to pull the spinning all-rounder.
